Resident artists will be embedded with a local community organization during the first week of residency to learn about the mission and goals of the organization, so as to be inspired with ideas for creative projects which will engage a broader cross-section of the public in those goals and missions.  Artists will then have five weeks to create finished, or significantly finished works which will be exhibited in the KCA gallery.  During the working period, artists will make one in-school workshop presentation in one of seven local schools.  Artists will also have one open studio day on a Saturday after the first three weeks – for public community access to the work and process.  There will also be two or three (TBD) evening events where artists will present their past or present work to an invited audience of supporters and arts leaders in the region.  Exhibits will open the Friday night of the last week of each residency and will run for four weeks.  Artists are expected to attend the Opening and an Artist Talk the Saturday morning after the opening, travel should be booked for the Sunday of the final weekend of the residency.  

Beginning in 2025, The Abbey Foundation will begin to offer 6 month residencies for day use of the 850 square foot studio space. There is also a screened in area attached to the indoor studio which is available for large scale works.  There will be a stipend for purchase of materials and additional equipment ranging from $1000.00 to $5000.00 depending on the budget.

While there is currently no live in residency program, applicants from outside the Anderson Valley, CA area may participate, but provide their own housing.

As the program develops, there may be community workshops which will require the participation of the grant recipient.

Currently, there is no application fee for the grant

​L’AiR Arts is committed to supporting intercultural artistic exchange through international arts residency programs, while promoting diversity, inclusion and international understanding through artistic and cultural heritage. Just like L’AiR Arts historical base at Atelier 11, our residency program mirrors the symbol for equality = a horizontal exchange between artists and cultural professionals from various cultural backgrounds, of different ages and genders, working in various disciplines and at all stages of their professional careers.

L’AiR Arts residency program is supported by 4 main pillars:

• intercultural exchange
• research
• professional development and;
• contemporary creation

The purpose of L'AiR Arts multidisciplinary residency programs is to foster cross-cultural exchanges and collaborations between international artists and cultural professionals within the local art ecosystem. Located in Montparnasse, known as a historic hub for international artists in the beginning of the 20th century, the L’AiR Arts residency program grounds its commitment to contemporary arts within a historical perspective. 

Focusing on intercultural artistic exchange as the legacy of the École de Paris, the program offers an insider’s view into the important role that international artists have played in Paris from the late 19th century to the present day.

Arts MSU, in partnership with University Health and Wellbeing, is excited to announce the inaugural call for an Artist-in-Residence at Olin Health Center. This initiative promotes a sense of belonging, wellness, and inclusivity among the MSU community through art. We are seeking an artist with experience in
community-engaged mural projects to work in a university health setting. The project will culminate in a new mural installation within the Olin Health Center building on the Michigan State University Campus. The selected artist will work closely with a diverse array of students and staff from the counseling and
psychiatric services at Olin Health Center over the course of the 8-month residency. The goal is to collaboratively design and execute a mural within the student health clinic. 

The Artist-in-Residence project embeds arts in the clinical setting through a new collaboration dedicated to integrating the arts into student wellbeing. By including arts practice into the clinical setting, we aim to improve student health outcomes, specifically within therapeutic groups, and to upgrade the
infrastructure of the clinical building by creating a large mural that speaks to students’ experiences and makes the setting more welcoming and trauma-informed. By incorporating arts practice within therapeutic groups free to students, we reduce barriers to participation.
